The US election of 2016 is another crossroads for humanity.
We tend to look at the world as a collection of solid nation states founded in stone to stand forever
but that is clearly wishful thinking. In 2016 the reality is we are a global community held together
mostly by descendants of the former British Empire and European Allies.. Though it appears the United States will
carry with the grand plan without the will of nearly half of it’s population. If it fails and looses it’s bottle who can step up and carry the
flame?
Mr Trump may leave the “heat” of the kitchen and head for a paranoia bunker. His supporters might go crazy and fancy themselves as Isis for Jesus,
run amuck, declaring a fatwa on thinking.
Yes It might seem like a far fetched farce but the rest of the World might need to brace themselves.
America and Europe of 2016 are awash in unwanted people displace by globalization and they are looking for a spark as the light of hope grows dimmer.
Worse yet the most UNWANTED people are not refugees but elected politicians like the putrefied US Congress and the hated European Parliament.
Capable of doing “more than a little” mischief.
